4 FRIEND . All Honest People.

Everybody knows Col. Ingersoll's repu-
tation as q lawyer and politician, but
every one cannot speak of his personality
truly. Take the word friend, y for In
stance. The broadness of the term can
not be better shown than by something
he said to man one day last week.
They were talking Of the prosaic matter
of ssnew shirts when the colonel de-
clared he was not going to have another
made for him until he could find shirt
maker who was honest enough to give the
woman who did the work the $3.50 each
that he was willing to allow
I'm afraid you'll have to wait some
time, = said his companion. aShirtmak-
ers' fortunes are not built that way"
ssThen I'll wait, said the colonel
"Henceforth wear no shirt until / have
seen the woman who makes it, and she
has told me herself that she got paid for
her work
This, then, is what the word friend, !"
as applied above, means. No man can say
that Col. Ingerson ever paid him less than
his work was worth, even in the most lib
eral sense of the, word, or that he was
ever asked for d good turn and was re-
fused. 1t is not to his friends that this
big hearted man is q friend, but to all
honest men a.ld women. Fannie E.. Mer-
rin n New York World. ~

The Great Noreris..s Mother.

Charles Dickens inherited from his
mother keen appreciation of the droll
md of the pathetic, as also considerable
dramatic talent. She is described as q
little woman, who had been very nice
looking in her youth, having bright hazel
eyes and being a thoroughly good natured,
companionable body She possessed an
extraordinary sense Of the ludicrous and
her power of imitation was something as
unconsciously took an inventory Of its
contents, and, i anything happened to
she would afterward describe it in the
quaintest possible manner. In like man
ner she noted the personal peculiarities of
her friends and acquainta p hiladel-
phia Times.

Longfe1low and His Income.

a note gives statement of the income
earned by Longfellow from literary labor
He kept record of it up to the end of
1852, and the largest sum received in any
year to that date was 1880. This was
principally for the poets ard Poetry of
Europe; original composition brought
him much less, although III 1862 rome of
his most notable Times were oil the mar
ket, including "Eva,seline" and 1.-THE
Golden Legend. In fact he had reached
fame long before he began to realize even
moderate fortune. Tho lack Of an inter
national copyright is supposed to have cost
him about $4,000. To an English lady
who complained Of American pirates he
wrote: 1T may comfort you to know that
have had twenty-five publishers in Eng
land and Scotland and only four of them
ever took the slightest notice of my ex-
istence, even SO far as to send me copy
of the books. New York Tribune
